Our Bonfire Party & Firework Display
On Saturday, we had our annual family firework display for Bonfire Night or Guy Fawkes Night as others like to call it. Basically, it's a way for us British to celebrate the fact that Guy Fawkes failed to blow up the Houses of Parliament, so yippee for that right? xD.
It was a very intimate affair, with my family and our close family friends, we lit a bonfire, roasted marshmallows, ate stew and other party food, drank beer and wine, and watched the fireworks, we had a fantastic time, it was very relaxing, but extremely fun. So, I thought I'd share the night with you.
So our 'nibbles' consisted of cheese and chilly heat wave Doritos, plain tortilla chips, Kettle's sea salt, cheddar & chive and sea salt & vinegar crisps, rice crispy bite-sized square, bite size brownie, vegetable and duck spring roll and fun size sausage rolls (which were actually in the oven at the point of taking this photo). I later put some dips out for the crisps with some bread sticks and massive marshmallows which we got from Tesco, which were for roasting on the bonfire :)
These are just a few of the fireworks we let off last night xD We also had loads of sparklers :)
I'm sorry about the poor level of accuracy in these photos, but I was looking through a lens and the fireworks were going off so quickly it was difficult to get good shots, but these are the ones I captured.
There are a few more on the memory card but they're not the best. So I didn't want to bore you with those ones xD Anyway, I really hope you enjoyed these photos and I will see you again on Wednesday with another post for you all.
- What did you do this bonfire night?
- Did you do something at home or go out for the evening?
- Do you even celebrate it at all?
Let me know in the comments :)
